I had a closing yesterday.
That's not so remarkable.
I have had several closings in 2010 and several more scheduled for the foreseeable future.
No, the really great part of the story is that during the course of the process something remarkable occurred. I represented the Buyers who were relocating to Georgia from Connecticut. The Sellers were leaving Georgia to return to their extended family and grandchildren in California.
We went under a Binding Agreement -- meaning all parties agreed to the terms of sale on March 28th. The inspection process and due-diligence period came and went without a hitch. Smooth sailing toward the closing date of May 3rd.
Soon, the Sellers determined they might have some house-hold items that would not make the move to California. The Sellers invited the buyers over to determine if there was anything the Buyers might want to keep with the house.
Still not so remarkable as people relocate to other parts of the country every day. Also, Sellers occasionally decide to offer items with the house the Buyers might appreciate.
The really neat part is that during the course of the process, the Buyers and Sellers became good friends and developed a great relationship.
While sitting around the closing table yesterday it became apparent that the Sellers and the Buyers greatly appreciated the efforts of their respective Realtors. It also became very very apparent that the Buyers and Sellers were going to miss each others company.
"PRICELESS"!
I love it when that happens!
